I used up my last bit of this Castle Peeps pink stripe with the binding and it was just a bit too short so I added some solid pink to make it long enough.

I’m finishing up my day job this week and will be back at full time quilting shortly! So many project and plans to tackle… I can’t wait!!

I got some good sewing time in this weekend after weeks away from my machine. It was so nice to be reunited. I took the time to work on a baby quilt for some friends having a baby girl. Their last name is Nice so I made The Nice Baby Quilt!

I picked fabric…

I pieced…

I basted…

And I got the whole thing quilted and bound!

Just the hand stitching of the binding now and I’ll be done. Sometimes it’s really nice to sew up a fast quilt.
